Summer of Zombie: Zombie Hospital by Jolie du Pre

Welcome To Our Zombie Hospital

The zombie apocalypse is upon us, spreading its ugly wings
all over our beautiful planet and making the few humans left hide as deep as
they can. The biggest problem is that more and more humans get bitten and
infected with the nasty zombie virus, thus increasing the number of zombies.

Luckily, there’s still hope for the infected. The zombie
hospital is the place where all the effects can be reversed so that these
individuals regain their human status.

Once you get admitted into the hospital, you won’t see the
daylight again until you get cured. The treatment consists of a series of
prolonged UV exposure sessions. UV rays have the power of weakening the zombie
virus, leaving it powerless, ready to get killed. This happens in the second
stage of the treatment. Unfortunately, some patients are too weak to resist the
first stage, which is quite aggressive. It is similar to what chemotherapy does
to the human body while also killing the cancerous cells.

UV exposure makes the patients very vulnerable. This is why
the second stage of the treatment takes place in an isolated aisle of the
zombie hospital, where only a handful of doctors and medical nurses have
access. Patients are put in metal containers, which are then exposed to
extremely powerful magnetic fields, generated with the help of huge
electromagnets. The polarity of the magnets is reversed every two minutes, the
result being a Brownian movement of all cells in the body. This stage of the
treatment takes several hours. When it is over, the patient is returned to the
human condition.

However, the convalescence is a critical phase. Patients
need to receive proper nutrition and human love. Otherwise, they pass away.
Those who can afford to pay the hospital fees during their convalescence have
more chances to be saved than those who are forced to return to the streets.
However, they can only die, they are never going to turn into zombies again if
bitten or infected with the zombie virus.
